The above Beatitude is a direct quote of Jesus.
And where Christians claim to follow Christ I am appalled at their behavior lately.
They seem to want to do everything possible to stir up arguments and strife.
If it's a mask they are all about shouting about how it doesn't work or violates their rights...
If it's a vaccine they are all about how it's obviously an attempt to control all of mankind.
If it's about quarantines they are screaming and shouting about how they aren't allowed to be Christian anymore.
Facts and compliance with Authorities has gone out the window in favor of conspiracy theories. Instead of Trump just being an effective president he has become some kind of savior. And name calling with horrible names of leaders God has placed in place is the rule of the day.
No one is preaching the gospel in word or deed anymore. They spend their time preaching about their savior Trump or fake viruses...what about Jesus?
Isn't He the most important thing? More important than a president? More important than a vaccine?
What about your fellow man to be considered more important than yourself?
What harm is done by a simple piece of cloth?
Especially if it brings him/her peace and calm in a time that people are prudently scared.
The gospel message is offensive enough...but now it's Christiandom that is offensive. If I were God I know that I wouldn't be pleased and send another WOE just to fix it.
